Never share hats.

We bought all of our grandchildren baseball caps while in Bar Harbor two weeks ago.  Two of the kids like to wear bucket hats.    I thought the bucket hats in the store looked small, so we only bought one for our youngest grandchild.  Jim told me to try the bucket hats on to see if they were big enough for one of our granddaughters, and I told him no way was I trying it on.  🙄

I think they are talking about a batting helmet, everyone has always shared them. A team only has so many helmets, I have never been on a team where everyone has their own. Then again this was 45 years ago, so maybe it's different now. But I doubt it.

Jimbo, the kids now a days all have their own batting helmets....at least, around here they did last year when our grandson was playing baseball.

Had it during James Bond trivia

OMG!!  This might make me consider sailing Royal again instead of Celebrity.  James Bond trivia?!?!  I can recite every line in every movie; I can sing all the theme songs!

So all these weird drinks that all of you are ordering that I've never heard of and sound yummy...

Are they on a menu anywhere or do you order them and hope the bartender knows what you want? Got a cruise coming up soon.

Check the app for bar menus. Most of these are on there. Some are unique to locations like the Schooner Bar or Playmakers.

Loving all the drink pics!  Does anyone there know how to make a Crescendo?  I still make those at times after getting the recipe from you. 😁 Methinks one is calling my name this weekend.

 

Okay, maybe two. 😁

 

I haven't seen pomegranate liquor yet

Most are from Royal menus. But haven't had an issue with any yet

All the drinks look so good. I could never get through that list in a week but I would have fun trying. 

[John&LaLa]

Trying to catch up this morning.  

 

Internet has been wonky. 

 

Can't do a speedtest with the ships connection

 

T-Mobile at the Dockyard

 

Speed varies by location on ship

I'm definitely going to need to try a Dark & Stormy or two when we're on Anthem in a few weeks.

I was feeling much better that night then the next morning for sure. Have to stick with Katie where the words are big. Lol. 

Slept through any excursions so far?🤣

[John&LaLa]

I think I last posted on Day 2. So I'll try and do Cliff Notes version.

 

But here's latest progress on list

[John&LaLa]

Oh, and I think we've beaten ball caps to death, but thanks for keeping the thread active😉😁

I guess I'll have another coffee for now....

Day 3. 

 

Ok, just typed this all up and it disappeared 😒 

 

But pictures came back. So just short descriptions. No witty commentary 

 

Coffee machines in lounges run 24/7

 

Poached eggs,  naked

 

Captain at Top Tier

 

Rissoto at Cheers lunch. Very tasty 

 

Surf and Turf. Top one is Laura's. A little overdone, so I gave her half of mine.

 

Land ho, but a long way from Dockyards

 

Schooner for trivia

 

I had a lovely window seat

 

The New Fashioned.  Very sweet

 

 

 

[John&LaLa]

Headed back out to get Fudge. It's over by the glass ticket booth

 

Will continue when I get back. 

[jmh2006]

John have you had a Rum Swizzle yet?  That is a Bermuda drink to be sure.

Now I'm jealous! The DL concierge on Indy in July told me they were no longer available overnight by order of HQ. Hope it has changed back to 24/7 there too.

Nope,  I get up there at 6:00 am  most mornings and they are turned off.  The grounds container taken out and hidden,  Have to wait for Eduardo to come to set up the breakfast and turn  on the cleaning cycle.  Don't know when they turn them off.  Usually available by 6:30 - 7:00 am.  This for both lounges.
